i’d say rob scallon but he can play pretty much everything
My vote goes to John Cordy but can not think what style puts him out of his comfort zone!
Dan & Mick of That Pedal Show doing Djent ? Andrew Benna doing a classical piece?
Neely tackles bluegrass.
IDK WHO BUT BACHATA SOLOS
I love how hard Rotem tried but still ended up playing jazz, absolutely outstanding, love that guy.
Metallified jazz. I'd like to see that subgenre developed.
kinda had mars volta vibes, that was cool
The beginning of his solo reminded me of Mekong Delta
First time I've seen/heard that guy, but now I wish he started a (jazz/)metal band.
@@NevetsTSmith You mean fusion?
i’m a jazz cat and got to play on my friends doom metal studio project and had the most fun i could’ve possibly had
I try to play a lot of genres every time I pick up the guitar, like I use jazz scales for rock and stuff, all because I mixed it up a few times. I've got a metal-ish guitar that only cost £150 (don't know what it is in dollars) and its great. Fully recommend just mixing it up sometimes
@@Pip_Bearmetal guitars are some bomb ass guitars too, because of how big the genre is. There’s a lot of variety, compared to jazz guitars which are a little more reserved to traditional specs and styling. That said, my favourite is bastardizing traditional guitars for metal purposes (like Chris Garza’s custom Fender 7 strings)
i hope you meowed the vocals, jazz cat. Im a metal dog myself.
Get some classical guitarrists to try blues and vice versa
Please, tell me it was recorded. That would be a blast to listen, two wonderful music styles together.
Rudy is that one kid who messes around all period but still has one of the highest grades
i love how seeing JaredDines play blues feels like watching Marty Mcfly playing Johnny B. Goode
thats violent 💀
Trust me he’s not. I actually thought his video was one of my favorites.
He got no feel for blues.
He sounds like David Gilmour or Terje Rypdal, the solo gave me shine on your crazy diamond vibes
@@ryantwitter343 That's kind of the point, genius...
This Rotem guy knows exactly how much he's triggering metalheads by not using the SG in the back
Tony Iomi watching this having a stroke from the shock.
I was looking for this comment
Broo I was literally thinking “he has an SG right there but he’s using a hollow body” as I scrolled to your comment
that tone he had as well, guy was definetely trolling.
Rudy Adobe is just built different. He managed to play all that stuff while being in the desert and having no instruments.
Hid dancing just made that incredible wester music!
Get his name right bro
@@nascarcricketer4702 habibi adobe Photoshop
As soon as his came on my mind immediately went to "I'll be what I am
A solitary man"
@@nascarcricketer4702 it’s an inside joke in his community, everyone mispronounces his name
Is Rudy Adobe his western name?
That jazzy metal was pure *King Crimson* haha. That guitarist was also a trained jazz guy when he got into heavy stuff and the results were totally similar! It just shows how important it is to try out different things
So both guitars are playing the same riff, but one of them's playing it with out the last note so it's in 13/8 instead of 7/4 right? And everytime they play the riff the second guitar lags behind by an extra note, and they get more and more out of sync until eventually they're exactly one bar apart and they start play at the same time again, it's crazy shit bro, you gotta hear it.
@@khamul787 Fraaaaame By Fraaaame
Sounded a bit like Easy Money
King crimson is soo cool
Reminded me a ton of THRAK and ConstruKction!
Rudy absolutely takes the cake on this one. Such a banger
do you know which song paul davids played??
"Spaghetti westerns. What do they sound like and how can we sound like them?"
Haha! Freakin' Rudy is a treasure.
I dance and cry to his horse song
God loves you all! The Father sent the Son to die for you and your sins so that you could experience freedom to the fullest! Believe in Christ's death and resurrection (which sealed the work done on the cross) for your salvation and the forgiveness of sins! Amen! God loves you all! The Father sent the Son to die for you and your sins so that you could experience freedom to the fullest! Believe in Christ's death and resurrection (which sealed the work done on the cross) for your salvation and the forgiveness of sins! Amen! God bless you all, I will keep you in my prayers
Dude nailed it.
@@jsan2548 dunno if you're talking about Rudy or the dude above you
Round 2: Rhett Shull plays emo punk with a tube screamer
Robert Baker plays Flamenco
Rob Scallon plays garage rock
Josh Scott just tries to play the guitar
Danish Pete chugs doom metal
Rob Scallon could absolutely play garage rock
Rob Scallon could do garage rock just fine, just listen to First of October. Based on the Neely video, while he certainly isn't bad at it, I would have him try Jazz
@@ER04040 ye I mean his whole concept is like diving head first out of his comfort zones I think XD
Rob Scallon plays neoclassical shred
@@TSKyanite djazz
RotemSivan’s take is exactly what I expected when someone plays a genre outside their go to genre. Insane talent, clean playing, sounds nothing like the genre attempted, creative :)
20 years ago my music instructor told me, that I would never be a great guitar player if I never got out of my comfort zone. So I learned blues scales and jazz scales and country chicken picking. It really frees up your knowledge of the neck. And the ability to just riff.
they're not wrong...
I’m a guitarist who started playing because I loved the sound of distortion, and more or less never learned to play without it. So it’s beyond fascinating to see someone coming from a jazz background discovering the sound of their instrument through distortion for the first time. It’s possibly the worst distortion tone I’ve ever heard in metal but to his sensibilities it felt like something aggressive and new to him.
i find it interesting there too for sure. love the "well I turned the gain all the way up, and had another pedal with gain pushing it too"
its that 13 year old me like "how loud can i play this?"
Trying to see how hard he can clip
Yea the tone was horrible but hey at least man tried and had fun!
Haha great we agreed that the tone was off. But then again it was very unique what he did. 👍🏼
I was about to comment that, he made a BB preamp sound like a metalzone :p,, but he had fun so its a win
Rudy is definitely is one of the musicians of all time.
@DK He laughed to hard so he died by asphyxiation
I like the part where he said "it's ayoubin' time" and proceeded to ayoub all over them.
Rudy Adobe
@@azorailke6057 I'm dying man make it stop
Listen to more music maybe....
Jared: "I figure blues is about improvisation. I don't really know."
Jared: *plays contemporary jazz about it*
I thought it was kind of like Gary Moore, a blues guitarist, but definitely had some jazz feel
it really felt like a pink floyd song to me more than blues...still amazing in all cases hehe!
I feel like he should have done like a 12 bar blues, but he killed it. Def had some tasty bluesy licks.
@@slednerman150tone sucked tho
@@mahathirmoon5010 Terrible tone; so bad!
Sammy really killed it. I wish there was a full version.
Was going to write the same
Rydy: i will make a great song and then go out dressed like cowboy and put all the effort.
Jared: ehh my pajamas are fine
The blues is all about pyjamas
Rudy has a videoclip called desert cowboy, he already had the footage.
They both got down but Rudy had me rolling with his video.
The footage is from hisbdesert cowboy song
The spaghetti western was so good! I think this perfectly shows just how difficult whistling in key really is.
As easy as singing in key.
@@HenritheHorseapart from everyone talks and it’s less of a jump to talk in key than it is to whistle and then whistle in key. one is a skill and a jump instead of just a jump
@@HenritheHorse
Nope. Some people can easily sing in key but cannot whistle at all. Therefore to the right person singing is easier than whistling and sometimes whistling is easier than singing for others.
He was probably the best.
It just bug me that he wore his pants inside his boots
dude rudy is such a gem, he went all out for this and I love it
I never think it’s a bad idea to leave your comfort zone musically. There’s a whole world of music out there and I believe that inspiration comes from something that you wouldn’t normally do.
Absolutely! I think that's how you push yourself to become a better more well-rounded musician.
The spaghetti western one was very on point
Rotem's metal take definitely sounds like a jazz player trying to play metal. It's weird (in a good way!) but definitely missing that lower end oomph or the riff that really hammers down the genre. But as you say, some of the fun of this sort of thing is getting results like that.
I love how he has an SG *right there* and still uses a hollowbody for metal 🤣
That might have been the worst tone in the history of guitar playing
@@Tedmeatwell Well when you try some new tones, you end up making a happy accident.
He's one of my favourite UA-cam guitar channels, great player, presentation and instructional content, but wow, I actually almost like him more for how much he missed the mark here.
His tone was so horrible
That odd time jam needs to develop into a full track. That was absolute fire!
I don't believe for a second Rudi wrote and shot this video after you contacted him for this video. This was definitely in the wing, waiting to be released. Unleashed, even.
The spaghetti western video is a piece of cinematic art.
love how rudy just came up with a goddamn masterpiece
Great job everyone! Jared Dines' blues gave me major Pink Floyd vibes. 👌
The more Jared got into it, I was hearing a mix of Gary Moore and a little bit of Carlos Santana. It was quite nice, actually!
Yes!
To me, it had a very Pink Floyd feel. Could just be the key, but it felt like a new version of David Gilmour shredding on The Wall.
Carlos Santana verbally abused mom on Facebook 10 years ago
I also hear Gary Moore :D
One of my favourite guitarists.
Maybe it's because I've listened to more Santana than Moore, but I was hearing a lot of Carlos Santana in Jared's piece
when you're playing ironically like Rudy Adobe, no style is out of your comfort zone
Get Rob Scallon playing bluegrass. This was excellent, you should definitely do more in the future!
He'd just call Mr. Wibblespoon.
I never actually saw him create electronic music other than a couple of videos with Andrew so I'd like to see him write prog house to cement his Rocket League endorsement
I think there are videos on Rob's channel of him playing bluegrass. Or...at least I know he's rocking a banjo in some way.
he made a good bluegrass(?) song
@@gjgsssgjgsss I think he also covered a Metallica song in a "bluegrass" style. Battery, was it?
Pleeeease!
"Did I just call myself a great musician? Yeah, we should be nicer to ourselves."
Genuinely a good moment that I'm really glad you put in. Sure, some guitarists have ego issues, but there are WAY more who put themselves down and refuse to recognize their own talent.
I genuinely teared up at that. It's so true in all walks of life. Narcissistic jerks are few and far between compared to all the people being way too harsh on themselves and putting themselves down (me included)
Sadly, egotistical people generally are full of confidence and will push themselves forward (with or without talent).
Many successful people do seem to be on the more egotistical side.
It's nice that UA-cam has somewhat levelled that playing field a little.
Love these collabs that pop up on my feed from time to time. Reminds me of the 2016-17 when Rob Scallon, Andrew Huang, Jared Dines, SamuraiGuitarist, Mary Spender, Adam Neely, and all the music youtubers would be making videos together all the time. Great times.
Right!
Not a single one of these musicians sucked at trying new things. They all made it sound great.
Nah. The tone from rotem is horrible
He nailed the vibe tho
@@scraggis6598 I kind of liked it, even if it didn't exactly sound metal.
@@scraggis6598wrong. Sounded great. Metal heads are so gatekeepy and cringe
@@TeddyBullard it sounded good but it did not sound metal it was distorted jazz lol
Damnit Sammy G! That Prog Style was incredible, I'd love to see it as a full song!
Sounded just like this band Hakken
It is so far up my alley I can taste brick wall
It's so interesting those really good musicians doing something out of their comfort zone, there's a lot of cool ideas in this video, I'd love to see some longer version of those songs
Absolutely beautiful and well rounded. Well done!
Rudy's choreography really completes the room
PLEASE MAKE THIS A SERIES. This is pure entertainment. I love it.
Much like Andrew Huang makes 4 Producers One Sample, you absolutely should do 5 Musicians Attempt to Escape Their Musical Box.
Wow!
I would've paid to have a full album of you playing prog rock, it was insanely good!!
Very cool challenge! The spaghetti western segment was so impressive, as is your fretless guitar.
Rotem Sican trying to play metal had me laughing in a genuinely good way as I enjoyed it more than I should. I loved it!
If you get Rob Scallon in the next epispde. That is going to be challenge. That guy is nailing everything when it comes to music.
He hasn't done polka yet, has he?
SamuraiG: furthest out of my comfort zone.
Proceeds to create the best licks you've heard in a while*
The Rudy spaghetti western section was so great!! Great video overall dude. Love it
As a producer this is the single best exercise you can do to get some creativity. When I'm stuck in a rut I find the furthest genre to what I'm used to and spend a day making something useless- but it always sparks something new
Jared Dines is amazing! I know he went through some tough times a few years ago and I’m glad to see him back playing again.
what happened?
@@P3D1Xc his channel got really huge, then he got really terrible depression and imposter syndrome from what i remember, and he uploaded very inconsistently for a while. Dude's a really solid guy, and I'm really happy to see him doin fun stuff again
@@JW-hc5gg oh, Lucas Mann isn't it? I did watched Lucas video. Didn't know it ended up this way for Jared. Thanks.
UA-cam drama, no time for it
@@JW-hc5gg Yeeaeh I didn't even care about the beef I just saw him get more and more cocky and annoying. I still watch the dicky dines show sometimes but only for Austin the babe.
Also Jared shave that shit it looks ridiculous. Like a 70's porn star!
Rudy is hilarious! I remember old true Italian comedic "Bud Spencer and Terrence Hill" Spaghetti westerns! Rudy awoke those memories, with a shout out to the humor.
Bro, that prog riff at the end was SICK!
I don't play guitar, but Rotem's guitar tone filled me with so much nostalgia. Sounded like all those guitarists I used to jam with in my teens with a metalzone. It's also such an odd take on metal and I love it. Such a cool challenge. Thanks for doing this!
More please!
Rick Beato doing Industrial Metal (to be honest, I doubt there's many genres that will challenge him).
Rick Beato doing Georgian (Sakartvelo, not America) Polyphonic music, alternately Bulgarian or Pontic Greek dance music
Rick Beato doing Cloud Rap
Haha, so true.
You give Rick Beato a 11/8 signature and tell him to play the banjo he'll still fuckin' tear it out, no sweat :D
Rick Beato hyperpop
rick beato does kpop or mumble rap
Great and interesting video! Also loved Rotem's enthusiasm and joy of trying something so different to his usual stuff.
Also you did great (IMO) with the different time signatures and also helped me a lot with showing the beat in the corner. Never really tried any of them except for 5/4 in Slash's Snakepit - What do you want to be.
Great stuff!
SammyG u killed it with that prog rock piece!! As well as the odd times I really appreciated the note choices!!
Jared Dines playing that Blues improv might actually be the best sounding thing I've heard from him ironically! And I like a lot of his Metal stuff and the shred he does so it's not that I dislike his music normally, but it just sounded really cool the way he approached the blues stuff.
Very '70s I thought, kinda a mix of early Zep and Pink Floyd with a hint of Zappa. If I heard it randomly coming out of someone's speaker I'd assume it was something vintage.
@@biddlybingdebong8959 for sure had mad Gilmour vibes
His tracks are pretty dope. UA-cam isn’t all these guys have on their catalog.
Damian Drapala his Light and Dark EPs are amazing. They’re actually some of the best metalcore/deathcore I’ve ever listened to.
That prog riff was amazing mate! I even listened to it twice, You might have hidden prog potential 😅
Sounded Soundgarden to me. Yum
@@Omertahun nah… was more of a Blue Oyster cult thing if you listen to stuff like Vengeance the pact from Fire of an Unknown Origin you can hear it. Honestly if you haven’t gotten into Blue Oyster Cult other than Godzilla, burning for you, and (Don’t) fear the Reaper, I’d recommend listening to some of their B sides bc they’re a really good band that gets overshadowed by their own hits that really aren’t a great representation of their discography as a whole.
@@joshuapittman4663Agree! There is so much great BOC stuff that people don’t know. And their studio albums don’t do them justice. They really were an awesome live band. On Your Feet or on Your Knees is one of my favorite live albums (unfortunately the audio quality isn’t great).
I thought the tone was a bit awkward, but I guess it worked.
Tarkus!
The country western song and video was amazing. I liked this video way more than I thought I would. Awesome work as always
17+ years of playing guitar. Been quite a few years since I've been this inspired to continue improving (especially on my weaknesses), and break out of my comfort zone. Phenomenal pieces and performances all around. Thanks for the great, inspiring upload. 🤘
Did anyone else feel like Rudy was the only one taking this challenge seriously? 😅 He nailed it!
nehh Rotem put up quite the show too!
ayoub is broken, he's a horse too..
"seriously"
rudy: *weird dancing*
Rudy's spaghetti western was 100% believable, I guess it's because the genre itself is like a time capsule
Paul is insanely good paying by heart. Love your work mate
This was fantastic.. I'd enjoy to see more similar type Out-of-your-comfort-zone experiments. I really thought this was a great teaching presentation also...!
Rudy absolutely killed it, nailed the music and was hilarious
"I don't listen to music with wild time signature changes"
The Mars Volta CDs sitting on your shelf: "Am I a joke to you?!"
Seriously though, you guys all did an amazing job! Hearing a jazz guy play metal & a metal guy play the blues just makes me happy :) And Rotem was right: when you get right down to it, metal really is love \m/,
Good work Sammy. That sounded awesome. Rudy and Jared sound also sounded like pros in those genre 😎
It's always great to step out of your comfort zone, and to experience new forms of music
He nailed the Spaghetti western!
7:46 omfg why do i love that weird part so much
12:08 - This is one of the best examples of comparative time sigs I've ever seen, displayed visually. Well done, sir.
Consider this playlisted.
XD
The nickname “Howlin’ Jared Dines” had me crying.
ok wtf how incredible was this prog that you did? :O
I NEED more of this! Could absolutely have been written by Plini, insane!
FYI for the odd time signatures. Think in terms of phrases of 2 and 3. You put various groups of 2 and 3 together and it allows you to access all of the odd time signatures quite easily.
Jared’s solo kinda reminded me of Steve Vai’s solos in some moments. Greatly done! 🏆
As a mainly prog rock aspiring musician they all did a phenomenal job doing what Sam asked. Keep up the outstanding work and keep on playing music
Loved Paul’s slide-playing. But the others also did some amazing stuff. I can’t wait for more videos like this.
this is thoroughly entertaining, and very important...the more contexts you add to your playing, the more well-rounded you are as a player...
This was an incredible video great experiment thank you.
This was so interesting!!! If you do a round 2, it would be really cool to see Marcin, Ichika, and Manuel!!
Tim Henson try not to arpeggiate challenge
@@hulse.y LOL
And Stevie T 🤘
@@IIxINSIGHTxII i wanna see him run classical guitar
Make Ichika play Midwest Emo
That’s the most clever idea I’ve seen on a video in ages! And amazing work from all the guitarists. More of this would be enjoyed
your choice of notes and arrangement of time signatures was absolutely perfect!
Paul is so mild and self-deprecating then proceeds to Johnny Winter all over his cut. LOVE it, brother!
I like music in the ''normal'' time signatures, I like listening to music where the beats make sense to my brain, but wow I loved your bit Sammy G. Sounded really cool, would've definitely added to my playlist had it been a full song.
Rotem’s song sounded like it would fit right in on a Queens of the Stone Age album. I liked it the most. For round 2: since Stevie T hates Ed Sheeran so much, I’d love to see his serious take on a Top 40 pop song. I'd also love to see Bernth on a math-rock-style song. I'd also love to hear a hip-hop style on guitar from someone. These crossovers are always super fun. Editing to say that I’d love to hear a trap beat from Emily Hopkins, the harpist!
Stevie T's biggest challenge: doing anything seriously.
He actually did do an Ed Sheeran song for his "How To Be" series, and it was actually pretty damn good.
And yes, anything with Emily Hopkins would be great! Her or Sarah Longfield, I'd be down with either... or both
I think Bernth would do great at any style, the man is a beast!
I was hooked on this video the moment I saw Jared Dines. That man is a legend.
This was an amazing experiment thanks for bringing us the music 🎶 gained a new subscriber 🤘
That was amazing! Rotem playing Metal really sounded like John McLaughlin in the Mahavishinu Orchestra crazy times - can't leave the traditions, right?
Dude you KILLED that prog stuff, that was really fun to listen to! The change between 4/4 and 7/8 was just 👌
Love the concept!
That baritone fretless guitar just blew my mind. i love it!
DUDE HOLY CRAP THAT WAS AWSOME! your bit at the end was so good
Finally some samurai math rock... A man for my heart. My favorite style of music played by my favorite guitar tuber
Loved all of these but my boy Rudy took the cake with his presentation!
Rotam's piece sound a lot like an ambitious Faith No More instrumental. Gotta say that I dig it
Jared Dines played like Gary Moore/Joe Bonamassa. AMAZING!
Jared playing blues legit gave me goosebumps
Samee
would love to see more of these! quite fun.
Loved Paul David's entry. Holly cow Jared's blues playing sounds like Jeff Beck! That was so good.
Ok - if I was not a fan of this channel before… wow this was mind blowing. A great musician is someone who loves, respects and cares for their craft - no matter what style they are challenged to play. This video is proof positive that if you apply yourself, anything (silly, slide, fun, expressive, melodic and 7/8) can happen!
These were all awesome! And great idea as well!
Impressive for sure. That sound Jared had was lovely.
Yo this is quality content, I can see there was alot of effort put into this by many different people, and I just wanted to say, it's amazing dude and I really appreciate what you do and I enjoy the content you create, much Love Fam and God Bless
